Which lens implant gives sharper vision after cataract surgery?
NCT ID NCT07232615
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study compares two types of trifocal toric lens implants used during cataract surgery to correct both cataracts and astigmatism. About 138 adults with cataracts and regular astigmatism will receive one of the two lenses. The main goal is to see which lens provides better intermediate vision (like computer distance) six months after surgery.
